Year 3
We work very hard to make our classroom a stimulating environment for every child in our class. Together, we ensure that all the children in Year 3 enjoy a full and exciting curriculum throughout the week. We will endeavour to share their learning with you as much as possible and will post regularly on the school’s Twitter page.
Each Monday afternoon, the class will have their weekly P.E lesson. Please ensure that your child arrives at school wearing the correct P.E kit each Monday morning. As P.E lessons are currently taking place outdoors, tracksuit bottoms and sweatshirts will need to be worn. Also, please ensure your child has the correct footwear. Please check the letter you have already received. If you have any questions about this, contact school.
Reading is an extremely important part of our curriculum. Try and read with your child for 10 minutes every night and write a short comment in their reading record. This will help us to help them progress through our reading scheme.
